Description
5 Lamb Lane is a group of late Georgian buildings, dating from the 18th century. They are two stories high and feature two-window facades made of part-coursed rubble, with some areas colourwashed and others roughcast. The building at No 7 is wider and includes a third ground floor window. The roofs are covered with slate and have wide boarded eaves, along with brick and roughcast chimney stacks.
The windows at Nos 3 and 5 are horizontally sliding sash windows, while No 7 has sash windows with glazing bars. The other buildings have a mix of casement and modern windows, all featuring cambered voussoir lintels. Central entrances lead to mostly modern doors. There is a cobbled pavement at No 3 and external rubble steps at No 6 that have a ramped wall leading down to No 7.
Originally, the buildings were only one room deep, except for No 5, which has a modern extension at the rear.
